How it works

From your buy box to a pallet on your dock

Four steps. The first one is the only one you do by hand.

Avg 9 lots / week per subscriber
  1. Step 01

    Define your buy box

    Set the refurbishable-spec range, preferred sellers, margin floor, lot size, and risk tolerance once. Tradehatch encodes it as a trading brief.

  2. Step 02

    Cross-monitor every channel

    Carrier trade-ins, corporate refreshes, insurance write-offs, lease returns, eBay, Marktplaats and other consumer marketplaces — scanned continuously, not on a refresh timer.

  3. Step 03

    Pre-vet every lot inline

    R2v3 / RIOS certification flags, cross-border export checks, EU right-to-repair and WEEE screening, and battery health scoring land on every deal before you see it.

  4. Step 04

    Book pickup, hand to queue

    When a lot clears your brief, Tradehatch books pickup logistics and hands the pallet straight to your refurbishment queue. You stop bidding blind one pallet at a time.

Vetting

Every deal arrives pre-vetted

The bottleneck is no longer supply — it’s your ability to see, vet, and act on it fast enough. Tradehatch closes that loop.

Inline check
Reliability scoring per seller
Every source seller gets a rolling reliability score — fill rate, listing-to-ship turnaround, condition accuracy, dispute rate. Low-scoring sellers are demoted, not blocked, so you keep optionality.
Inline check
Spec & battery candidates
Flags whole lots whose model mix and battery-health distribution clear the refurbishable-spec window. You only see what yields margin-positive units, not raw bulk.
Inline check
R2v3 / RIOS certification flags
Surfaces the seller’s downstream certifications inline on every listing, so you know what your B2B buyers will accept before you commit to a pallet.
Inline check
Cross-border & WEEE checks
EU right-to-repair compatibility, WEEE registration status, export licensing, and country-specific refurbisher requirements visible on the lot card — never a surprise on intake.
